You still remember what a BlackBerry L-series device is, right? It's supposed to be a BlackBerry 10 handset of the full-touchscreen type, instead of one with a physical QWERTY keyboard (yes, RIM is still planning to produce those). We've seen a few leaks of such an L-series device and we've mostly liked its prototype design. Now, we get to see a size comparison between it and the iPhone 5, as a brave individual has decided to the right thing and share this picture with the world.
Interestingly, it turns out the BlackBerry handset isn't much bigger than the iPhone 5. What makes this interesting is that few smartphones nowadays aren't bigger than an iPhone. Anyways, the L phone is expected to pack a slightly larger screen, but we shouldn't forget that this handset is yer to become official. And considering that RIM has scheduled the official introduction of BB 10 for January, with devices probably coming even later, a lot of things about this handset might change until then. It may even be just a prototype that will never get mass-produced. All of this remains to be seen. Until then, we get the idea that it isn't RIM's intention to attack users with giant touchscreens.
